Our campers will learn about acting, staging and voice and explore solo as well as ensemble singing and movement with professionals that have worked all over the country: Music Director Jason Parker, Choreographer Pam Kuntz, accompanist Hadassah McGill and the esteemed Director Mark Kuntz.

Many volunteers will also be returning this summer, they include: Susan Dworski returns as Wardrobe Manager, Alyssa Daschbach as Dance Captain & Stage Manager and Erna Gregory as Managing Camp Director.

As always, our campers will receive lots of individual attention. We continue to work with faculty at Western Washington University Theater Department and hope that WWU students in the Directing program will join our staff in teaching musical theater skills, rehearsal techniques, memorization tools and the vocabulary of a stage actor.

Teamwork, being supportive of each other, and aspiring to do excellent work will be emphasized. The camp will pursue fun through excellence.

Theater Camp will be July 8 -21 with several culminating performances.

The camp will run five days a week, for five hours a day (half days for children K-3rd grade by request) 9:30 am – 3 pm.

Thank you for joining us for this wonderful experience. Please note that all sales are final.
